Journey to hit 430+whp with a T28...Lets find out.

[S13 curtis]

I should have posted this earlier:

ACT Extreme Pressure plate & lightweight flywheel

[jspaeth]

^ Which disc are you running?

I am running the ACT 6-puck, heavy duty PP, and prolite flywheel (10.5 lbs).


It looks like you went with the slightly heavier flywheel (I think that one was somewhere around 14 lbs?).


Also, why the extreme pressure plate? That thing is gonna be a fucking stairmaster! The heavy duty PP + 6 puck can hold probably 420 ft-lbs of torque++ at the wheels.....

My buddy has an extreme on his WRX, and every time I drive that, and then get in my car, it feels like my clutch is fucked up hahaha.

LOL @ Stairmaster

Im running an ACT 6 puck just like you lol. I picked ACT Extreme because I just wanted to get something pretty tuff that wont end up slipping in case i decided to change to a different set up later on.

That's the exact reason I didn't go with an ACT on my KA-T setup. I had a 2600 on my GSX and I felt like a I was gonna have road-rage every traffic jam. I went with a Competition Clutch with ultra-light flywheel (not sure of exact weight) and it's rated at 450rwtq. It feels 100X better/lighter than my old ACT setup. Either way, can't wait to see what #'s you put down. Goodluck!

You should be able to easily surpass those numbers with a Meth Injection Kit. Really affordable.

gotta remember clutches are gonna feel totally different from car to car

my nissan with the stage 3 spec is a feather
my brothers mustang with the stage 3 spec is super tough to push in

ps: how you been havent seen you in forever

thats bec. the mustang is more than likely cable not hydrualic system for the clutch release.. retarded design

i think its just because its a mustang

[idahotuner]

i ran the unsprung version of this clutch it wasnt that bad. but this time i am doing the sprung version, just for longevity

[BiG MiKE86]

OP! Lets see some turbo fitment updates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GroundPerformance]

Let see some updates. I have the same goal as you, I will be rockin a bottom mount setup but on a KA-T.

[cotbu]

We want Food! Look at what you started! LOL!

I would like to see fitment, with the T04E compressor housing and 72ar Hot side (motor mount bracket, to compressor clearance). Oh yeah! with the tial44 fitted.

Here is some crums until the full course meal is ready lol.

I also ordered Precision 1000cc injectors+ Resistors along with greddy top feed fuel rail it should be in a couple days from now.







enjoy.

[midnight_rex]

damn 1000 cc injectors? u planning to make 700 whp+?

740cc should be more than enough

This:




edit: My DW740cc injectors will go to a KA-T project after this is done.

[kalypso123]

keep it up homie

[razerremix]

Nice lights!

[BiG MiKE86]

we want turbo fitment!

[idahotuner]

i agree turbo fitment. i really want to do this with a gt3071 frame. and this exhaust housing

[jspaeth]

WTF Brah! Need to see wastegate fiment so I can decide if I am gonna buy this turbine housing!

not trying to be the token pessimistic dickhead of the thread but i am skeptical of the longevity.

you're stationed in Korea making buku $$ can't spend your money...for God sakes man build the bottom end and give yourself some piece of mind. i understand racer x on forum xyz made 24320482084 horsepower for 3 years on stock bottom end without problems.....good for him, but i wouldn't waste 10 grand of my money because of that.

i would have forgone the head work if it was between that or the bottom end, but i know money's not a problem with you since you're military so i am venting strongly my opinion/suggestion that you build the bottom end.

e85 is cheap race gas and will help the stock bottom end last longer...but also e85 varies from batch to batch even at the same pump...therefore care must be taken to make sure your fuel is consistent to the tune, however duly note that even with a perfect tune....the laws of physics still apply and if that bottom end can't take it, it won't hold.

once you reach the limits of that bottom end..it's too late..

best of luck and thank you for your services

Dave

funny..... i made 442rwhp on my stock block SR20 for almost 7 years.... i sold the entire engine setup and now its in a different chassis still ripping shit up....

its all in the tune!

[S13 curtis]

Well the 1000cc injectors and Jim Wolf Tech Resistors came in today also with the Greddy Fuel Rail. Those are Precision Injectors.



Also i dont have an update on the turbo fitment yet the only update i have is that the motor was pulled and the flywheel tranny and clutch were installed. I will post pics of the cut-out as soon as i can, the other update is that i ordered new intercooler pipes and im ditching the small steel pipes the old pipes were 2' hot side and 2.5 on the cold side and they were pretty shitty. Thenew pipes i just purchased are Aluminum and its 3 inch coldside and 2.5 hotside,air flowshould be better. I'm also going to get a new blowoff valve im not going to use my ssqv anymore, Im either going with the new Tial Q Blow off valve which is the one im leaning towards or the Greddy type r blow off valve.

I would like to have your input on what you guys think for the BOV,thanks.

[murda-c]

Why the larger pipes on one side? is it to match the TB?

Either of them is great I am sure. Can't go wrong with Tial ($$$) but apparently that Greddy Type R is pretty damn good as well.

I am considering going with that turbine housing, and then I would go with the new MV-R Tial (44mm version of the MV-S.....very low profile, 44mm V-band flanged) but I have no idea if it would hit the strut tower...

I recall someone discussed this somewhere, earlier....basically, it's okay for the coldside to be a little bigger, but you never want it smaller than the hotside (just what I heard).

+1
Tial 50mm Q BOV



OR



thats what i narrowed it down to, i got tired of my HKS ssqv .

Since the tranny is on hopefully it wont be long before the turbo is mounted i want to see it just as bad as you guys do.

[Geno750]

Not sure why so many people are hating on the stock bottom end. IIRC, Martin (ex-XAT guy, now with Zfever) is pushing a stock bottom end (I think, stock rods for sure though) to 500whp YouTube - Fever Racing s14.5 on Dyno Race Gas

Also, the Tial is miles better than the greddy imo.

well i read some where that stock rods r forged steel so stock rods r fine

I was just looking into this wg - this sounds like the answer for this setup. Any idea when its going to be released? I cant seem to find any pricing info or finished pics.

It may make a difference, may not. It is maybe like an inch or 1.5 inches shorter than the previous version, so if it wasn't even close in the first place, this won't make a difference.

[idahotuner]

i read something about the expansion of the air going out of the intercooler into a 3 inch pipe when it comes in from a smaller pipe also helps drop the temp of the air going into the engine.

i wonder how hard it would be to geta bottom mount tubular manifold and weld o na External gate flange up a in the same location as on a top mount manifold seems liek it should would good
